QPR v Aston Villa - Pre Match Thread

[LukeJames]

2-0 QPR, 0-0 at jalf time with both teams offering nothing, a mistake by Elphick in the 67th minute puts them 1-0 up, we lethargically pass the ball around midfield and defence for 25 minutes without looking to really penetrate there defence and then they wrap it up in injury time making the most of a short back by Jedinak.

Ian Holloway is now their manager and the least said on that publicity-hungry subject the better.

Even though I may be biased because Ollie speaks proper English like me I've always thought that he was a perfectly decent bloke

Glad we got rid of the stupid "Score draw" and "Bore draw" options.

I've now been able to select "Draw", just as I did against Wigan, so we are going to win.

No need to thank me.

Two things are against us - and subject to Aston Villaisms.

1. It is on TV.
2. It will be one of those 'you're playing Aston Villa so it's get your season back on track week'.

1-0 QPR.

I'd have Green and Hepburn-Murphy on the bench and I'd use them.

[ADVILLAFAN]

Is Baker still injured, could do with him coming in for Elphick?

[brontebilly]

I'd have Green and Hepburn-Murphy on the bench and I'd use them.

yep, we cant keep looking at the same sh*te from the same players. there isnt a single one of the forward four from last night that deserves to keep their place nor Westwood but unfortunately its likely some inevitably will. Granted Loftus Road if I recall is a very tight pitch so lads need to be able to hold their own physical against these.

--------------Gollini
Bacuna, Chester, Baker, Amavi
Adamoah, Jedinak, Tshibola, Grealish
--------McCormack, Kodjia

We didn't lose the last home games against them, i'm quite optimistic: 2:0 Villa!

[Dave P]

Last win there was 2003/04 but that was against Fulham. 

Draw 1-1 on Sunday.

[Cologne_Lion]

Damn, it's an away match. What's going on in my head? Tough one.. But still think we can get the win.

All I hope is that Abgonlahor isn't anywhere near Shepherds Bush come noon on Sunday.

                    Gollini
Hutton - Baker - Chester - Amavi
                    Jedinak
             Bacuna - Tshibola
Adomah                           Ayew or Grealish
                      Kodija

But it's on TV so we know what to expect....

[Deano's Mullet]

Bruce is too savvy not to make changes after getting wrong. I think we'll be miles better in selection and application. 2-1 villa

[eamonn]

At least we'll have an extra day's rest/training on them. They are at home tonight to the unstoppable Derby County.
